One thing i really like about the way Cav's win worked out - this came from true teamwork and 100% commitment from the rest of his team. Too often we see a lot of selfish actions that lead to nothing, however, from his actions and words, Cav is a true team player who deserved and earned everything he got. British cycling can only benefit from this attitude.

The British team were all prepared to sacrifice themselves because they knew Cav would finish off the job and he didn't disappoint - bring on the Olympics!

@pashut1, cycling is the toughest sport in the world.... Not golf. I agree that golf is a very skillful sport, but you don't necessarily need to be as fit and healthy as a cyclist has to be. You might have voted a lot of times for the golfers, but Cav thrashed everyone else by getting about half of all the votes of everyone. Get a life!!!!!

Right that's it then, i'm gonna wrap my helmet in cling film too and crush my pals on the Sunday ride.

@arklat, he was wearing a skinsuit and a helmet cover. Very aero. They really pulled out all the stops to get Cav this win.

Does anyone know what gear Cavendish was using in the sprint?

everytime i watch this, it amazes me how mark can squeeze through in a bunch sprint and still push forward and win, hes a rider who deserves every win he has had so far, here's hoping he has more too
